The divisions of the nervous system can be divided into the central and peripheral nervous system. These are then divided and subdivided into components such as the somatic and autonomic nervous system and then the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions. This type of representation of the nervous system is most akin to which of the following? clustering a conceptual hierarchy the link method the method of loci
